Permanent Marker was the last one standing and got the chop at day 75 of flower, nearly 11 weeks. The trichomes were still not very amber anywhere except the top sugar leaves, but it was about 90% milky white, and the leaves were all drying out. I bagged 36g of larfy buds and trimmings, 20.5g top buds, and 12g small buds. 32g smokable is not bad. I will update with smoke report in a couple weeks, but initial tests were promising. Strong chemical taste not far off from its namesake, with a KO strength punch.

Been back to cruise control now after having a few questionable spots pop up on random leaves which I’m pretty confident was PH swing and temp shock when changing the res out. Once everything is back to being stable, new growth looked fine. The EC/PPM is dropping slowly along with water consumption daily, looks to be in a good spot for now. I have been defoliating leaves blocking tops in the middle, and I’ve been pinching out the tops on the plants as well. I cut my lights back just a touch in hopes I could get a little more vertical growth, these things are stocky!! Maybe that’s the Mammoth Si at work.. See you next week!

Started their 48 hour of darkness today, am going to chop Wed. I think they did a great job finishing up over the last week, super excited to see how they turned out. Keeping this week's update short and sweet, the next update will be much more detailed. Will post the final update after I finish drying and trimming.

🌾 Week 14 – Lavado de raíces, defoliación final y recta final. Está semana 14 marca una etapa decisiva en este cultivo para la Dognabiscup. Entramos ya en la recta final, con las plantas muy próximas a su punto óptimo de maduración. Esta semana el enfoque está puesto en limpiar, ordenar y dejar que la planta termine su ciclo de forma natural. Se ha iniciado el lavado de raíces de manera progresiva para eliminar restos de sales y nutrientes acumulados en el sustrato, favoreciendo una maduración más limpia, mejor expresión de terpenos y un perfil final más puro. 🌿 Defoliación ligera y selectiva Durante esta semana también se ha realizado una pequeña defoliación estratégica, muy controlada y sin excesos. El objetivo no ha sido forzar la planta, sino: Eliminar hojas grandes que ya no aportaban fotosíntesis eficiente. Mejorar la penetración de luz en zonas medias y bajas Aumentar la ventilación entre cogollos, reduciendo riesgo de humedad. Facilitar el acceso visual para el seguimiento de tricomas. Esta defoliación se ha hecho respetando al máximo la estructura natural de cada planta, sin estrés ni podas agresivas, entendiendo que en esta fase la prioridad es madurar, no crecer. 🌿 Permanent Marker – Fotodependientes: Las Permanent Marker están mostrando un nivel de resina muy elevado, con tricomas bien desarrollados y una transición clara hacia estados lechosos, apareciendo ya los primeros ámbar en las flores superiores. Los pistilos están mayoritariamente oxidados y los cogollos se sienten firmes y compactos, señal de una floración bien llevada. Tras el lavado y la defoliación, la planta queda centrada únicamente en terminar la maduración de las flores, sin distracciones ni bloqueos nutricionales. 🌱 Jealousy Diesel – Autoflower: Las Jealousy Diesel siguen su propio ritmo, algo más pausado, pero con un desarrollo muy equilibrado. El engorde final continúa y la producción de resina es evidente. Aunque aún necesitan algo más de tiempo que las fotodependientes, responden muy bien tanto al lavado como a la defoliación ligera, manteniéndose sanas y estables. Aquí la clave está siendo respetar el tempo de la genética, sin apresurar el final. 🔬 Control técnico de la semana: • Lavado de raíces progresivo. • Defoliación ligera y selectiva. • Ambiente estable sin cambios bruscos. • Temperatura y humedad controladas. • Sin signos de estrés ni carencias. • Prioridad total a maduración y calidad. 📆 Estado actual: Tricomas mayoritariamente lechosos, con aparición de ámbar. Pistilos en fase avanzada de oxidación. Flores densas y bien formadas. Producción de resina muy marcada. Aunque el cultivo está ya muy avanzado, todavía se sigue observando evolución diaria, especialmente en tricomas y aroma, por lo que el plan es acompañar estos últimos días con paciencia y precisión. 🎯 Próximo paso: La siguiente semana será clave para: -Evaluar tricomas con lupa/macro. -Decidir el momento exacto de corte. Todo el trabajo, el amor, la pasión y la constancia por fin terminan de dar sus frutos 😍. Los terpenos están siendo impresionantes, dulces, cítricos, empalagosos, potentes, muy difícil de describir. Tengo ya muchísimas ganas de cosecharlas ✨❤️.

The Harvest Prelude: After a patient wait and 48 hours of darkness, the moment arrived. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, standing proudly like a silent guardian, was ready for the grand harvest. The sound of each cut echoed through the grow space, reminiscent of felling a mighty tree. The compact structure of the buds was awe-inspiring, a testament to the ninja's disciplined growth. The Lego Ninja, like a stoic warrior, was then hung upside down, beginning a two-week drying ritual. Maintaining an ambient temperature of around 21°C and a relative humidity of 60%, this slow-drying process allowed the buds to retain their essence, preserving the symphony of terpenes and cannabinoids. The trimming phase unfolded like a fragrant masterpiece. Each bud, adorned with a glistening layer of resin, transformed the trimming process into a sensory delight. The zesty aroma of oranges enveloped the room, a tangible expression of the tropical lineage. The compact buds made every snip a careful dance, revealing an abundance of frosty trichomes. The moment of reckoning arrived with the scale's unveiling. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja, from a single plant, bestowed upon me 309 grams of dried medicine. Each gram was a treasure trove of cannabinoids, a promise of euphoria and relief. The sheer compactness of the buds translated into a concentrated potency that left me in awe. In parallel, the clones, nurtured with equal care, showcased a fascinating divergence. A twist in the tale unfolded as the intense oranges of the mother transitioned into vibrant tangerines. This unique expression, I believe, was a testament to the clones weathering a summer heatwave differently, bringing forth a distinct personality. The clones, resilient and generous, gifted me a bountiful 549 grams of pure joy. This now my keeper of the garden, an embodiment of the Lego Ninja's legacy. The harvest dance, though familiar, carried the nuances of tangerine zest, a refreshing twist that left me eager to explore its intricacies. Both harvests shared a common thread—their resinous abundance. The trim bin, akin to a treasure chest, gleamed with golden trichomes and fragrant joy. Sticky fingers became a badge of honor, a tangible connection to the resinous richness that filled the room. Shout Outs: No harvest report is complete without expressions of gratitude. A special nod to @DutchPassion_Official for crafting the genetic marvel that is the Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja. Their expertise paved the way for this epic journey, and I tip my hat in acknowledgment. In conclusion: As the dust settles on this epic harvest saga, my heart brims with happiness and excitement. The Tropical Tangie Lego Ninja has proven itself not just as a plant but as a living masterpiece. Stay tuned for the smoke report, where we delve into the true essence of this botanical ninja's legacy. Until then, fellow cultivators, may your gardens flourish, and your harvests be as bountiful as the joy they bring. As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life<3 <3 <3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience With true love comes happiness <3 <3 <3 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so <3 <3 <3 Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only <3 <3 <3 Growers Love To you All <3 <3 <3 P.S- I must extend my sincerest apologies for the missing video reports.

What a fun experience! This was my first time trying a mixed grow style of synthetics and organic. I think I may have found my new go-to strategy. This definitely wasn't a perfect run by any means - as a matter of fact, I botched the feedings earlier in her life. However this grow definitely taught me a lot more about how to treat this strain properly. Now I'm running her clones in the 3x3x6. So the legacy will continue! Let's see how this strain does during the summer months! Cheers everyone! This has been an awesome grow. What I'm lacking in yield, I yet again make up for in quality. And I don't think yield will be an issue with the clones, they're week 6 veg - and quite massive! - RWI out!! 😁 😶‍🌫️🤑

Weird germination process: among the whole tent I had few duds so I had to replace and select. I noticed from the start that the seed didn't germinate correctly having kept the membrane closed tight on top, inclusive of seed shell. I manually removed the redundant seed shell and membrane myself. Germinated using the wet towel method, then planted with michoryzae powder as added boost. A couple of days later I have noticed that the top wilted while suffocated in the shell, however it is already sprouting a perfect "Y" " self-topped" shape to die for. I wasn't planning to train any of the plants in this grow but I will do it with this MOBY DICK: this strain is a high yielding sativa that has historically given me a consistent large harvest each time. It can bush out very quickly and I would have to allocate half a tent just for her.

Was another pretty good week in the books both in and out of the tent. More and more branches are being weighted down by colas, and had to be tied up. UKBS 1 continues to frost up like a winter morning. I'm doing my best to keep airflow moving in the tent, mainly in and around UKBS 1 as it's the denser of the two. Carl 1 was having a little bit of an issue but I believe it's been mostly resolved as of now as I've given it a pure watering in between the latest feedings. Outside (inside, most of the time. haha) The plants are doing quite well, save for the high winds that magically spring up whenever they go outside. At this point I'm basically forced to purchase a greenhouse or something of that sort so they don't blow away completely. Timelapse is out for the week, as per usual. EOS Rebel T5 shots will probably come tomorrow or the next day. -6/18/2021 - Keep fuckin' up the watering schedule. Carl 1 is not pleased. These kinds of whoopsies shouldn't be happening in flower, especially not this late. Gotta get on top of things. - In other news, took some shots with the EOS Rebel T5. Hope you'll enjoy. -6/23/2021 - Built a greenhouse kinda thing. Should keep the wind off the plants well enough while allowing a wee bit for airflow. Hoping all goes well.

Candy Cream Go Fast Kannabia, 16-17 weeks in. She was stuck in a small for for faaaar to long. She vegged well. But took along time to reach out its roots. But she's turned into a beautiful plant. I'll try explain as best I can until I find device with full veg pics Veg weeks 4-6-------2l pot She grew & grew as much as the 2L would allow. She was the biggest 2L pot phenos I've ever seen. She starting sexing & took ages to recover back into full veg. Veg weeks 6-10------18L pot She took a long time to recoup. As she started sexing on me. It took over a week or more to start growing again, as she was in the 2L pot. But she kicked off into a rapid spurt of growth. Flipping wait weeks 10-13 Took nearly a month before I started seeing full pre flower. I expected as much. As I brought her back from from nearly sexing it took about a week to get back Into any form of veg. HEAVY FLOWER 14-17 Flower weeks Weeks 10-17 Sadly I can't find my device with all the pics. These are what the pics ive took in the pastv3 weeks. She's roughly 4-5 weeks into flower & doing really well. She took about 3 weeks to go into preflower as it grew so many shoots after I uppoted from 2L to 18L from veg week 6 or so. (Far to late for this fast mover). So, the pre flower you see there. That's the 4th of Feb. That took 4 weeks or so to FULLY flip. But if not rootbound, she's UBER QUICK. Veg nutes were used right up until it started ro sex, and was kept under my p1000 / hs1000 light/tent right up until I got tired of putting it into my dark room DISCOUNT CODES L 20% off Kannabia & Xpert Nutrients with code: GGST 20% off Oringal Sensible Seeds with code:GGSTGD 20% off Zamnesias entire catalogue with code: ZAMMIGROW2024

This was a lot of fun. Looking forward to growing more like this one. **Update** Total dry weight was 2.6 oz (74g). The buds were a little airier than the Tangie'Matic, not as tight/dense. Placed dried buds in mason jars with Boveda 62rh packs. Will be opening the jars daily for the next couple of weeks to cure. So far it tastes nice, I can taste some mint, but mostly just nice tasting overall. Will update the taste again after further curing.

Week 20 marks a transition phase for the Pineapple Upside Down, and the plant is now one full week into her new environment. The light cycle remains unchanged at 12 hours, and nutrition stayed stable. However, the major shift this week was the move from a 5000K veg light to a 3500K full-spectrum panel. This immediately triggered a visible reaction: the leaves, previously flat and perfectly extended, curled downward, showing a clear photonic stress response. Structurally, the plant is beginning to adapt. The earlier LST work is starting to show again: the tops are lifting toward the light, suggesting that she is reorienting herself and gradually regaining balance. Externally, the structure indicates a slow recovery, even though internal metabolic adjustment to the new spectrum will take more time. All environmental parameters were intentionally kept constant: – PPFD maintained at 550 after a 72-hour acclimation at 300 PPFD, – Temperature around 23°C, – Relative humidity near 70%, – No changes in nutrient formulation. This week’s focus was stabilization rather than growth. Given the current signs — partial recovery of the tops while the leaves still show stress — the plant will not be flipped to flower until she demonstrates a clear return of vigor. The upcoming week will be key. If the foliage regains posture and the stress diminishes, the transition to flowering can be considered. Until then, the approach remains minimal: no corrections, no boosters, only patience and consistency. Week 20 closes on a cautious yet optimistic note. The plant is stressed but responsive. The next phase will determine whether she fully adapts to her new 3500K full-spectrum environment.” Peace,,,
